Goddess Of
Mountain by Lv Weichao
The Goddess in a garment made from ficus
pumila and a waistband made from dodder, with a flowering branch in her hand,
riding a red leopard, followed by a colorful leopard cat, came along the
twisted mountain paths. She was waiting for her lover but her lover didn’t
come. Then she went away sadly and desolately. Only crashes of thunders and
cries of apes left in the mountain. This a song sacrificed to Goddess of
Mountain created by the great poet Qu Yuan in ancient time. Today, such a
moving legend is depicted into an exquisite fine brushwork with wisdom of
contemporary artists, brush and ink techniques of literati and romanticism of
poets. It shows the novel style and valuable artistic charm of contemporary
artists on brush-ink language and expressiveness. The famous animalist Lv
